influences . We experience much difficulty in the areas where we do not know or live out God ’ s good design as laid out in the Bible .
I am passionate about giving children a biblical worldview because I have become fully convinced that the biblical worldview is the only worldview that works out well in the real world . For example , God created males and females and said they should get married , stay together for life , and produce godly offspring . This is God ’ s good design for the family , and when followed , it works out beautifully .
Worldviews have real-world consequences . When our beliefs are false , we will make decisions based on those beliefs that cause tremendous pain and suffering . When my wife was twelve years old and her brother was only five , their father rejected God ’ s good design by abandoning his family for a life of sensuality . Thankfully , my wife has had the love of my father and family in her life since we met as young teenagers . Her dad ’ s decision to reject God ’ s good design has had a much more negative impact on her brother ’ s life , and I can honestly say that he has never gotten over this devastating experience .
In our world today , millions of children identify and approve of the transgender movement . It ’ s hard for truth-based thinkers even to fathom the foolishness of this worldview . Yet , children who have been lied to and taught an unbiblical view of sexuality and gender are embracing and living out these utterly destructive ideas .
If we want to save our children in a world gone crazy , we must become passionate and intentional about helping them develop a biblical worldview — a belief system that is fully aligned with truth . When we teach our children to live in harmony with God ’ s good design , they will experience peace , productivity , harmony , and a taste of the paradise lost in the fall .
